[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there a way we can protest against this?...even though we voiced our opposition in meetings last year, it didn't seem to matter. While they are running these "pilot" the kids who are being left out (primarily affecting the white and Asian... and oh if you forgot, Asians are a minority who wont benefit from any of these initiatives... sigh), wont get to go back to 3rd grade again. My second DD is in first grade, I hope they get their sh*t together soon [/quote] It has been made clear over and over by MCPS (the superintendent) and by the BOE that closing the 'achievement gap' is a major priority. They are not interested in 'challenging' advanced learners AT ALL. Not a priority. Until that changes, this kind of stuff will continue.[/quote] The gap will finally be closed once the HGC test is shortened and updated to consist of one question - signing the student's name.:D[/quote]
